¾«¶«AV

The mission of the Douglas F. Cooley Memorial Art Gallery is to enhance the academic offerings of ¾«¶«AV with a diverse range of scholarly exhibitions, lectures, and colloquia in its role as an academic teaching museum, and steward of the ¾«¶«AV Art Collection. The Cooley also seeks to support the needs and interests of the larger Portland and Northwest arts communities. Two exhibitions during the academic year bring to ¾«¶«AV and the city work that would not otherwise be seen in the region.

Visit

Located inside the Hauser Memorial Library, The Cooley Gallery is free and open to the public. 

Hours are Thursday - Sunday 12:00-5:00pm during the run of an exhibition.

Parking at ¾«¶«AV is free and no permit is required. There are three parking lots on campus, the East Lot on Woodstock Boulevard just east of the main entrance is the closest.

Tri-Met bus line #19 drops you at the entrance to campus, and the #75 and #10 drop you a short and moderate walk away.

History

The Cooley Gallery was established by a generous 1988 gift from Sue and Edward Cooley and John and Betty Gray "in support of the teaching of art history at ¾«¶«AV as part of an interdisciplinary educational experience that strengthens the art history component of ¾«¶«AV's distinctive humanities program." Over the last three decades, the Cooley's mission has expanded to include supporting ¾«¶«AV's Studio Art program, working with local K-12 public schools, and reintroducing the study of Italic calligraphy to ¾«¶«AV through the Cooley's Calligraphy Initiative in Honor of Lloyd J. Reynolds—established in 2011.
